They released Season "2.0" which was only the first half, and I've been since waiting for either season 2.5 or them to just release the full season 2 box set. This is only one of two (the other being Firefly) tv series that I actually watched every single episode (and actually liked it) the way the story was unfolding was amazing.. the doctor and his hot android wife or whatever she was.. can't even remember the robots names anymore it's been so long since I watched it, yet I dont see anything new about season 2 coming out to DVD, yet season 3 is already announced and is coming out sometime this year on SciFi again. How can they be giving us season 3 already and season 2 still not being released on DVD in it's entire? This is going to screw me over if I dont get to see what happened in the second half and have to jump right into season 3.

Do you buy movies on DVD? If so, isn't it more of a value to get 13 episodes, plus the original miniseries for $45 on Amazon than a 2 hour film for $20? I understand not wanting to plunk down $80 for those HBO sets, but BSG is pretty cheap considering.

I'm just glad it's got a few bells and whistles along with widescreen and 5.1 surround. Some shows on DVD leave me a little sour with high cost and little justification for it.

Sci-Fi just aired "Pegasus" yesterday morning at 1:00 AM (central). If I've read correctly, that'll put season "2.5" to start this coming Saturday and run through 'till October when season 3 starts. For those with TIVO, or your channel provider's equivalent, I recommend setting it up to record. I know I have.

I also wouldn't be surprised if Sci-Fi did a marthon of season 2.5 the weekend or two before season 3.0 starts, though I've got nothing but wishful thinking to back that up.

That'd be great if that happens.. I know they did that with 24 (AE anyway) sometimes and did ran the entire season episode after episode for 24 hours. Never have to get up except to grab another beer and take a piss

IMO Battlestar Galactica Season 1 is definitely worth $50. You can probably find it cheaper than that though, might check Ebay or if you have a CD Warehouse they sell used copies for around $30. Honestly I don't watch a whole lot of TV - especially TV shows - but Battlestar Galactica really caught my attention. It's just a damn great show, and with season 3 coming later this year, you're going to be missing a lot if you get into it and didn't watch the first two seasons. I've still got to watch the last ten (or however many it may be) episodes of Season 2 to be completely caught up, but I've been thinking of revisiting season 1 again as it really is that great of a show. Short of Firefly, I'd say it's the best TV show I've ever seen.

Yep. BSG is THE best series on TV, imo. Even better than some pretty good shows like 24 and Prison Break. I remember in the year before the new BSG started, the hardcore fans of the old, original, 70's Galactica were so violently vocal in their total condemnation of the new series, particularly over the fact that Starbuck was going to be a woman. Funny how we don't hear from these old school hardcore fanatics anymore.

I guess I need to try watching it again as the little bit I saw of it didn't interest me in the slightest.

Count me in as another person in the "BSG is the best series on tv" camp. I've managed to get most of my family and friends hooked on it thanks to passing around the season 1 and season 2.0 dvds. Can't wait for October. It does start up again in October, right?
